| Tyan Tachyon modding. I'm was going to mod Tyan tachyon. My goal was to actually do a step by step process with this thread, in the hopes of helping other, and and of course myself. Any suggestions would be gratly appreciated. The pic below is the first of the series, the outcome of which, will be better performance, with more effective thermal dissipation. It almost looks as though the dang shim , is epoxied (hence the metallic sheen or reflection) to the edges, which is going to complicate it's safe removal (sorry about the blurring). Upon futher reflection it's too risky. Since the card has a propensity for overheating, I'm just going to RMA it. Why void the warranty? If it were a one year old card fine. But I can't afford to make mistakes.
